Interventional analytics in skilled nursing facilities associated with reduced readmissions.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

To assess differences in longitudinal profiles for 30-day risk-adjusted readmission rates in skilled nursing facilities (SNFs) associated with Penn Medicine's Lancaster General Hospital (LGH) that implemented an interventional analytics (IA) platform vs other LGH facilities lacking IA vs other SNFs in Pennsylvania vs facilities in all other states.

Study design

Retrospective longitudinal analysis of CMS readmissions data from 2017 through 2022, and cross-sectional analysis using CMS quality metrics data.

Methods

CMS SNF quality performance data were aggregated and compared with risk-adjusted readmissions by facility and time period. Each SNF was assigned to a cohort based on location, referral relationship with LGH, and whether it had implemented IA. Multiva
